The present article aims to analyze the motion to vacate within the current Brazilian civil procedure system. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of this instrument as a possible tool to solve the central problem of the research, which is the prevalence of an unfair merit decision from a material point of view, motivated by insufficient evidence. This situation may arise if the burden of proof falls on the prejudiced party, giving rise to the application of the four corners rule. When newly discovered evidence emerges, we have found that this instrument assumes the role of a procedural remedy, capable of renewing the litigation and enabling the reconsideration of the controversial matter under a new evidentiary perspective, with the power to even initiate a collateral attack on a final judgment that covered the contested decision, provided that all the legal requirements for such an attack are met. The research will use a theoretical and deductive approach, by applying the qualitative, basic, explanatory, and bibliographical methods. Ultimately, the theoretical and practical viability of the hypothesis will be examined
